PREFACE

Bangladesh is gradually transforming towards a developed country where

several mega projects have been initiated recently including Padma

Bridge, Metro Rail, Deep Sea Port and several large scale power plants

etc. Civil engineering related to design, analysis, materials and

construction has been a major driving force over the past decades, which

often suffers lack of technical innovation. Recent advancements in

construction materials, analysis & design, construction techniques andstructural health monitoring have been achieved through a globally

engaged research communities. Such newly developed smart materials andtheir applications, innovative technology and construction techniques can

substantially benefit such mega projects. They will not only be able to

help improve the performance of such structures under multiple hazards

but can also improve their long-term durability, and potentially reduce

repair and maintenance costs.

The First International Conference on Advances in Civil Infrastructure and

Construction Materials (CICM) 2015 is a major technical event held inDhaka, Bangladesh. It provides an outstanding forum to facilitate

international exchange of the-state-of-the-art in research and practices in

civil infrastructure and construction materials. The conference wasorganized by Military Institute of Science and Technology (MIST) Dhaka

and it took place in MIST campus from 14 to15 December 2015. The

conference was also supported by the Mechanics and Materials Division

of Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE). Some major co-

sponsors include IABSE, CSI and S-FRAME. The Conference provided

an excellent opportunity for the participants from 11 different countries

including United States, Canada, UK, Australia, Japan, Malaysia, HongKong, India, Pakistan etc. Productive discussions among world leading

researchers and local practitioners on the recent advancements in

construction sectors in terms of materials, design, analysis, construction

techniques and structural health monitoring of bridges, buildings, steel andconcrete structures, bracing systems, fiber reinforced plastic (FRP),

advanced cement composites, green technology, recycled concrete were

the key features of this conference.

The CICM 2015 program covers all aspects of structural design, analysis,

construction management, construction techniques, advanced construction



v

materials, structural control, smart structures, structural health monitoring,

natural hazards, improved resistance to multiple hazards related to civil

infrastructure systems. In total, about 100 full papers from 11 countries in

all key topics in terms of experimental, numerical, analytical studies, and

their integration are covered in this volume of conference proceedings.

The editors feel honored to be asked to write a Preface for the CICM 2015

proceedings. The huge success of the CICM 2015 would not have beeneasy without the wholehearted participation and substantial contributions

from a large number of experts coming from different parts of the world.

The conference could not have been organized without the financialsupport from many industrial sectors and private firms in Dhaka (e.g. Shah

Cement, RSRM, DIRD, KSRM, ICON, Mirpur Ceramic, Labib Group

BD, ASBRM, Poly Cables etc). The contributions of keynote and

distinguished speaker series are also highly appreciated, which made the

conference attractive and lively. The extremely efficient organizationalefforts put together for this Conference by Col Shah Md Muniruzzaman,

the Head of the Department of Civil Engineering and his colleaguesrepresent a work of high class quality. Acknowledgements are also due to

the reviewers especially the review team from the University of British

Columbia’s Okanagan campus. We express our sincerest gratitude for

their time and energy for making the CICM 2015 a first class majortechnical event for the international and local participants.

We are looking forward to the 2nd International Conference on Advances in

Civil Infrastructure and Construction Materials (CICM) that will be heldfrom Dec 21-22, 2017 at the same city. We look forward to welcoming

you again in CICM 2017, Dhaka.
